I applied for Wiley Edge as a Fresh Graduate of Non-CSE Engineering Branch by approaching them through Naukri.com.
Round 1: It has three parts:
- Aptitude & Coding Test: Once I sent out my resume, I received a mail regarding the first test. It consisted of 3 Parts, each is an Elimination round on its own.
- The Aptitude + Technical MCQs: Aptitude was mostly based upon topics like Data Interpretation, Permutation, and Combination and in Coding it was Concepts of OOPS, Code Logic, and Missing code statements. On Clearing the round, you receive the mail for the next part.
- The Coding Round: Next is the Coding Round of Length 1 hour and 2 questions (1 in Java, 1 in Python) out of which you must at least solve 1 to qualify. For me I picked Java and the question was regarding the Maximum element in each row and column cross of the 2-D array. Once I cleared this, I received the next email.
The Automated Video Interview: This was the Interview round in which 6 questions, one by one will be prompt and you have to record your video response in the time frame of 2 minutes with 1 minute being the minimum answer length.
Questions asked were:
- What is Something Interesting about you that is not in your Resume?
- Why do you want to join Wiley Edge?
- Talk about a scenario when you have been out of your comfort zone?
On Completion of all 3 Parts of Round 1, after a few Days I received an Email regarding booking my time slot for my Interview
Round 2: Technical Interview [Tech + HR]: The Interview Lasted around 30 mins in total and it was a virtual video enabled interview.
- Started off with a classic Tell me about your self. After which we directly jumped to some technical questions:
- What is the difference between String Builder and String Buffer?
- Where do we use Dynamic Programming?
- What is a Hash Function?
- Verbally how would you find the Middle element of a Linked List?
- After this, in the same interview environment, i was asked to switch to the IDE page and the question given to me was : Take an input of a String and print in order the frequency of each character occurring in that string.
- I started off with an approach of creating a char frequency array which I discarded later and solved it using Linked Hash Map. (Expected T.C is O(n))
- After this I was asked some basic SQL Queries like :
- What is the difference between DROP and ALTER Command?
- What is INNER JOIN? (Use Example)
I Later Received a call that I have been Shortlisted for On boarding and It will start off with a 10-12 Weeks Training after which an assessment would be taken which would determine the Project you will be placed in.
